[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Once you leave a high cost of living city you can never go back. I can never return to London because I got off the property ladder, and houses appreciated so much that I could never afford to buy there now.[/quote] I completely agree. Our house in our lower cost of living city could never appreciate enough to be able to cover a down payment on, for example, a house in Arlington.[/quote] This. We want to have the flexibility later when we are older and/or retiring. If we did it now, we would be stepping down too soon. Living here gives us more flexibility in our next choice. My sister-in-law lives in Indianapolis (much lower COL) than here and she has a friend who says she is "livin' the dream" there after having moved from the NYC area, but they are stuck now. They can never go back.[/quote]
